PHYSICAL EXAMINATION: Today, blood pressure was 114/74. Pulse was 82. Respiratory rate was 18. A pleasant woman in no acute distress. Neck was supple, no bruits. Negative Lhermitte sign. Cardiovascular: Regular rhythm. She does have a mild left sternal border murmur. Extremities: No edema was noted. Neurological: She was alert. She was oriented x3. She was able to register 3 words immediately and was able to recall 1 out of 3 after 3 minutes. She was able to name the months of the year forwards and backwards without any difficulty. Her speech was somewhat hesitant, however, no paraphasic errors. She was able to copy an abstract figure and was able to draw a clock and place the hands correctly at 10 past 11. On cranial nerve examination, her pupils were about 3 mm, both reactive to light. I did not see any afferent defect. Her right disk was normal; her left disk, was not able to see the presence of a cataract. Her extraocular movements were intact with no nystagmus. Facial sensation and strength were normal. Normal hearing bilaterally. Palate and uvula elevate well and symmetrical. Normal shoulder shrug. Tongue was midline. Motor strength was 5/5 throughout, except for finger extensors that were 4/5 on the right, 5-/ 5 on the left; interossei 4/5 on the right, 5-/ 5 on the left. She had a right pronator drift. Motor strength in her lower extremity was overall quite good. However, she has some decreased velocity of movement on finger tapping and foot tapping bilaterally, right worse than left. She has mild spasticity on her right arm and leg, has postural tremors in both hands. Presence of mild dysmetria on finger-to-nose and heel-to-shin bilaterally. She had decreased pinprick in her right arm and leg. Decreased vibration in toes. Some decreased position sense on her right toe, normal on the left. Her deep tendon reflexes were +3 in the upper extremities, but left was worse than right; +1 in the lower extremities with bilateral upgoing toes. I did not notice any clonus. Her gait was wide-based, a little bit spastic on the right. She was not able to do tandem gait and had a positive Romberg.
